Preston Stewart Spring Offensive

This Spring/Easter the 2026 Preston Stewart Truck Offensive will support another five vehicles towards the upscaling of the Seraphims from Company to Battalion level.

Further, due to personal request to Preston, we will deliver 2 armoured pickups to the First Battalion of the SSO, 8th Special Purpose Regiment.

The Goal of the Spring Offensive 

• 5 fresh Toyota Hilux (3 to Seraphims; 2 to SSO)
• 2 VW Crafter or similar with 4x4 capabilities to carry larger UAVs (To Seraphims)
• For this campaign, the standard is 2012 or newer models. 

Who will receive the vehicles?

• The Seraphims, 2nd Battalion 104th Territorial Defence Brigade, to support their work as an efficient army unit, turning their company into a battalion to ensure they have enough wheels for operations in Sumy, Donbas and Kharkiv region. 

  In the first video the Seraphims are retrieving their soldiers from a dangerous position, using one of the trucks provided by Preston Stewart's community. Hang on tight....

•  SSO 1st Battalion, 8th Regiment.  This is a specialized unit within the Ukrainian Special Operations Forces.

Mars, the Warrior god

Mars, the Roman warrior god, is like the Seraphims, with drones flying across the sky, protecting the defenders and destroying the enemy.

The Angel of Justice

Commenced in winter, this patch depicts the Angel of Justice, reflecting the Seraphims, who operate mid-range drone strikes and are currently fighting in Kupiansk. Seraphim are historically Archangels. They have a pure nature, divine vision, and knowledge.

Kramatorsk Railway Station

For Preston, we introduce an 'Iconic Locations of the War' series. This Spring we celebrate the memorable Kramatorsk Railway Station, where many civilians have died, due to being brutally targeted by the enemy. Despite such tragedies the Ukraine railway never stops.

The Battle Patch - Seraphims

This special three-patch set brings together the full lineage of the unit: the 2nd Battalion of Unmanned Systems on the left, the 104th Brigade on the right, and Серафими (Seraphims) at the centre - the name and symbol from which it all began.

What Makes C4U Trucks a Perfect Balance?

Short answer: We spend money on what really matters and save on everything else to deliver more trucks every time.

• Frontline pickups: C4U has provided 800+ frontline pickup trucks since 2022, with funds raised EUR 7M (December 1, 2025).
• C4U deploys mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, dated 2010-2017, with low mileage, fully serviced and upgraded to last 20-30,000 km without technical issues.
• These pickups are most favoured by Ukraine military, due to being some the toughest and most reliable pickups for the frontline.
• Armour for life: C4U vehicles are battle-ready, not just street cars. We armour them with 8mm steel plates around vital parts of humans (neck, knees, head, body) as well as around the vehicles' vital parts - such as engine, radiator, turbo, accumulator. Armour keeps soldiers alive and keeps vehicles moving, even after being shelled.
• Direct support to Ukraine: Your donor dollars support the survival of Ukraine as a nation and develop in-country skills and capabilities. Paid personnel including engineers and mechanics, visual designers and patch makers are all in Ukraine.
• Value for donor money: The main personnel and drivers with C4U are all volunteers working pro-bono.  Our costs are kept to a minimum (no marketing, paid photographers, event planners). The currency value of UAH is 40x lower than EU compared to USD.
